Oysterfest 2014 shucking competition
This internationally renowned culinary event is obviously known for the fantastic dishes put forward by great establishments, but also for the oyster shucking competitions taking place. It gathers every year numerous notorious champions as well as talented amateurs all there to compete and celebrate the amazing delicacy.
What’s even better is that a portion of the profits of this year’s festival will go to the Open Pier Conservatory, a non-profit group founded by Daniel Notkin devoted to protecting the world’s waterways and aquatic life.
